Nuclear Engineering: A Conceptual Introduction to Nuclear Power, Second Edition provides coverage of the introductory, salient principles of nuclear engineering in a comprehensive manner for those entering the profession at the end of their degree. The nuclear power industry is undergoing a renaissance because of the desire for low-carbon baseload electricity, the growing population, and environmental concerns about shale gas, so this book is a welcome addition to the science. In addition, users will find a great deal of information on the change in the industry, along with other topical areas of interest that are uniquely covered. This updated edition reflects the most recent developments, with new or expanded coverage of such topics as small modular and advanced modular reactors, nuclear fuel cycle and waste disposal developments, and the role of nuclear energy in climate change abatement. Intended for undergraduate students or early postgraduate students studying nuclear engineering, this new text will also be appealing to scientifically literate non-experts wishing to be better informed about the 'nuclear option'.
